under the knife or go through surgery. The fat reduction method isn’t new to
the cosmetic world but has recently gained more attention as more people opt
for non-surgical procedures. Coolsculpting works by targeting the fat in
stubborn areas on the body. It can be difficult to get rid of fat in certain areas
of your body like love handles or double chins.

also called cryolipolysis and takes place in a facility-specific to
coolsculpting. This cosmetic procedure begins with a specialist using a
handheld paddle to cool and freeze the fat underneath your skin. The paddles
have a suction component that sucks your skin to allow the cooling mechanism to
begin. A massage usually takes place after the specialist freezes off fat
cells. It isn’t uncommon for patients to have to return for more than one
session to get the desired body they want.

Botox has been around
for a long time and will continue to be one of the most popular non-surgical
cosmetic procedures done by both men and women. Botox uses injections to relax
the facial muscles to remove lines and wrinkles. The most popular areas where
botox is usually done is around the eyes and on the forehead.

This is a rather
quick procedure and doesn’t require much time to recover. It is quite effective
and is more subtle than other invasive surgeries. Many celebrities and a-list
stars have gone through their share of botox and you can tell. If it isn’t
overdone the results are natural-looking. Many people opt to get botox because
of how little time it takes to do and that you will look well-rested and
refreshed afterward. Botox can actually be beneficial in many other
circumstances regarding the face, whether it is acne-related or for a nose job.

5. Laser Liposuction

Many people are
afraid to get liposuction because of the invasiveness of the procedure. Others
simply don’t want to go through the extended recovery stages. Those that aren’t
bold enough to go underneath the knife should opt for a laser lipo. This
procedure works by blasting fat cells with low-wave lasers. The fat is
liquified to make it easier to remove.

often compared to coolsculpting due to the fact that both focus on specific
areas of the body such as:

Stomach

Upper arms

Chin

Flanks

Upper thighs

non-surgical procedure is one that uses radiofrequency and heat to eliminate
the age from a patient’s body. Though the results may vary when it comes to
this procedure, it is quite effective. The purpose of this procedure is to take
years off of a person’s face by increasing the amount of collagen production.
You won’t feel too much pain when you go through this procedure. It is said
that Thermage is painless but many patients who have gone through this cosmetic
change will say they felt more pain than they had expected.

Just like other
non-invasive cosmetic treatments, more than one session may be required to get
the results you want. While this is usually done on the face it can be
performed on other parts of the body like the stomach. This procedure is ideal
for those who want to look younger with tighter skin.
